The phone will come pre-loaded with Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) and TouchWiz on top. Galaxy R also will offer Samsung’s Kies Air, a web-based tool that will allow you to connect to the phone through a Web browser on a laptop or PC and controlling the Galaxy R remotely, as well as allowing you to send text messages and edit your photos and other functions.
